Arma 2

[Skynet5]

Itching for a new game.

Wouldn't mind trying this milsim. What's the craic with it now? Plenty of downloads loads of patches....here it was horribly buggy.

Would it run well on my rig? What do I need to buy to get what most people are playing on line in terms of expansion packs?

Once I buy do I just search for servers and join?

Done plenty of squad work in bfbc2 and bf3 so use to working in a team. Are all the server private or is their public hosted ones?

Hang on a minute folks.

Please don't jump on me here. I ain't like that.

My concern is around my CPU. I understand Arma to be a complex sim and probably CPU intensive. As my CPU came out just before (i think) then the game could be more demanding than the current processor of that day. Like FSX!

Not at all mean to brag or seek assurance I have the best. That ain't me.

Honestly, if you want to experience decent online coop/pvp arma2: operation arrowhead then joining a community/clan is a must. I hate the stock game, I hate the stock MP modes, I hate it I hate it! But absolutely love the community/ace mods etc.

Can you point me in a direction of a clan to join?
I really need to read up more on this game first. I think I'd like it a lot. An advance BF game sounds good.

Are mods free from the community u join?
